@That Guy John
Nah, that would be cool, but I meant as in to use a different setup file, because FPSC seems to reset any extra values other than the ones that are default, the only thing I can see to fix this is for Lee to make a change to the source code of FPSC's IDE.

@TIMON
Hm, it seems that could be to do with the culling, try editing the script for the decal and put this:

As for low-res editor textures, I have no idea.

Is it at all possible to fix the issue of getting stuck on entities?

When you jump on a tall entity the player gets stuck. Its so very very annoying. For example most entities of buildings or houses that have some small ledges. If you jump towards them and land on top of part of it you get stuck on it and cannot get off because the player is being forced to move in a direction that's blocked within the entity.

I also notice if you jump on some rocks or hills the player will slide... slide right off of it or slide right into a corner and get stuck.

I may be wrong but isn't the SETSYNCRATE=x a road to disaster?

I hope I am wrong but it sounds like a feature that will need to be set correctly for every system that is going to run your game for optimal results.

Am I right that you're referring to the screen-tearing at higher framerates that people are now experiencing with the uncapped framerate?

The issue of screen-tearing(where frames are being displayed too fast for the screen) is really only for super-fast frame rendering, not slower rendering. FPSs above a screen's refresh rate(60+) can suffer from screen-tearing while FPSs below the refresh rate(30-60ish) usually don't or if they do it's less noticeable.

With one of the newer releases that will go into the next beta you will see this command. It also will have the ability to turn on or off the syncrate. Since I'm using the most recent release the default is that it is turned on; but, the syncrate is set at 140 I believe. That's what I'm getting as a max on a simple map. Otherwise I was getting at times about 500-600 fps.

This info may change by the time it comes out in beta.

I did some testing and it's all guns that don't have impact decals anywhere but in one spot. It's as if the the possibility of any gun going a bit to the side or so is gone. Every weapon hits dead on with every shot. Is this something that has been this way for a while?

EDIT:Whatever the problem was fixed itself. How i do not know.

@Disturbing 13 I've seen the bug correct itself after switching to altfire mode, firing and then switching back. It's possible there are other activities which will cause the bug to fix itself. Hopefully SC has already fixed the bug internally.

Since 1.20 B2 I've noticed that any allied characters (with the allied DAI scripts) have HUGE blood pools (see attached screeny.) Can anyone explain why and/or how to fix it? The pools for enemy characters is normal. It's only big on allied characters.

Scene Commander, thanks for the "plrforcemove" I have found a use for it. I'm sure there are other uses for this other than the one I used it for but I'm not sure exactly what those would be, yet.

I didn't even know it existed when I wanted to do something like that at the beginning of the game and was going to do an RPG Mod command for it. It was then I saw the command in the code.

Here is a bug that I just found on v.1.19. Since it's not on the list of 1.20, I suppose it's right to post it here?


Description

When I fire a bullet at an enemy character and hit him far on the left or far on the right (but hitting him!) then the bullet will go through the character and show an impact decal on the wall behind the character. From now on, the character will be firing at exactly this position, no matter what the script says. Whenever the character fires, the impact will be seen at the last position the player fired at, provided it's a spot behind the character.

When I fire at a spot in front of the character, then the character will start behaving as expected again, firing at the player and hitting him.

expected: The bullet does not go through the character. The character keeps firing at the player, no matter where the player shoots.

Repro [always]

- Fire at an NPC, far left or far right on the body (hitting him!)
- The bullet goes through the character (doing damage) and showing an impact on the wall behind the character
--> The character will now fire at this position until the player hits a spot in front of the character

Just wanted to point out it stopped doing this for me after around V116. I can't speak for everybody but yeah.

I still haven't touched the V1.20 Beta as I'm currently on hold with FPSC but from what I read. I am really happy performance is starting to become a lot better. Keep that up !

Since there hasn't been much activity in the source code repository, the last commit was June 26, this update is looking like a copycat of the DBPro U77 Release Candidate.

Scene Commander, are you still working on this?

I would love to see some better physics in this engine. I am working on a large campaign, but a big problem with it is that my enemies keep jumping through the walls, or glitching up the game because they are trying to move up/down the stairs, and they cannot because the entity allies/enemies don't follow the physics properly, and end up bringing the FPS to 0 trying to calculate everything.

It's a large bug that has been over looked, but I would love to see that fixed over any other.

Ditto on the walls. It seems no matter what you use. WW2, Scifi, or a user pack the mobs will run through the walls or push you through a wall, through the roof or in a Duct through the floor.

For various reasons I've not been able to commit much time to FPSC recently, but I have been working on some fixes behind the scenes, I just haven't posted to google code, so don't panic, I'll not let this die.

with the shader problems in the viral outbreak pack, and several characters freezing up. I went back to version 1.18. These problems don't exist there. I know there's a fix for some of these problems, but, if someone buys a model pack they shouldn't have to change scripts to get it to work properly. My opinion is, that you should figure out why these problems came about since version 1.18 and fix them. Lee or who ever is working on these updates. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the work that goes into the updates. It is just something I don't think we should have to deal with. All official model packs should work with every update. Just saying.

Well I do not know if this is the 120 version or the RPG mod issue

However, gameover.fpi seems to not be working well.

specific is ,hudx=50,hudy=25 The button is always at ,hudx=50,hudy=50
also the window is at the left side of the screen.

Can anyone verify this?
I built a test section and kept changeing the position of the button but it will not change nor will the image center.

@Meows Which gameover.fpi file are you editing?

Is it the one in; languagebank/english/gamebank/mygame
or the one in; languagebank/english/gamebank/(your build game folder)?

When testing a level, FPSC uses the file in the mygame folder, but when building a level it uses the one in your build game folder. So whatever you change in one folder, you need to change in the other as well.

On the other hand, you probably already know all this, and that's not the problem at all! If it isn't, then I can't help you, sorry. Someone else will be able to help you I'm sure...

[edit]I've just realised, after re-reading you question, you're using RPG mod, so I'm not at all sure about what folders are used, so my answer is probably totally wrong anyway lol[/edit]

@Comby & D0MINIK

I'll investigate this.

@Marc Steene.

I'm sorry, I can't replicate that, everything is working at my end. It's possible I fixed something I noticed was wrong between V20.2 and my working version, but I've nothing in my work log. As far as I can tell all is working now.

@All

I am still working on this, but for various real life reasons, it's taking longer than my previous updates. V20.3 is currently in alpha testing and is working purely on stability/performance. I've a list of other minor bugs reported and will investigate those once we've got a satifactory stable engine.

BUG: Using giveplrweapon=X gives the player the gun with an empty clip forcing him to reload instead of a full clip of ammo (amount dictated by reloadquantity in fpe).

If you are talking about the offical model packs than no you have to buy them, But if your not will still probably need to pay for the hard work some one put into it

I did see your previous post and must admit, I didn't get around to investigating until today.

The particles appear to be working for me. However, if you want, please feel free to post/email me a FPM if you have an issue, explaining any concerns and I'll look into it.

Some things that bug me (No pun intended)

Everytime I open up FPSC since like 2 hours ago, it freezes on "checking files for you" ran memdump and cleaner, no avail. V1.10 B2.

Also, particles don't seem to work for me. Setting the main script to "decalparticle.fpi" (I believe that is it) just makes the sprite a still image.

Cheers!

Really Marc?

Quote: "I am still working on this, but for various real life reasons, it's taking longer than my previous updates. V20.3 is currently in alpha testing and is working purely on stability/performance. I've a list of other minor bugs reported and will investigate those once we've got a satifactory stable engine. "
